Gday Drew Helicopters don't require thrust per se by virtue of the fact that they are so ugly they repel the earth. The above is also a fair explanation as to why only true "He Men" have the requi...

Gday All Being one who flies a glider there is NO reason that the endurance record should be held by, of all things, a Stryker. :? I vow to endeavour to rectify this lamentable state of affairs. :...

Gday Drew That is seriously bizarre. I can only surmise that you may have a dodgy solder join somewhere, or, a break in the wires from the motor that is causing an intermittent fault. I cannot see ...
